Graphene and Nanoparticles Hybrid Nanocomposites: From Preparation to Applications

by Abou el Kacem Qaiss (Editor), Rachid Bouhfid (Editor), Mohammad Jawaid (Editor)

Overview

This book covers the recent research on nanomaterials and nanotechnology based on the hybridization of graphene with other nanoparticles. With their simple synthesis, nanoscale dimensions, high aspect ratio, mechanical, electrical and thermal properties, graphene and its hybridized materials have witnessed a great interest, and the chapters in this book cover the spectrum of research from the preparation and synthesis of novel nanocomposites to their potential use in aeronautic, automative, energy and environmental applications. Written by respected researchers from both industry and academia, this book is of interest to researchers and students working on nanomaterials.
